What Arrive does
Arrive is a global mobility platform providing integrated parking, public transport, EV charging, and in-car payment solutions to city governments, automotive OEMs, fleet operators, parking operators, and end-driver consumers. Operating across 90 countries and more than 20,000 cities with a combined user base of 65 million, the group delivered consolidated 2024 revenue above EUR 361 million and a 45% five-year CAGR, and unified under the Arrive brand in 2026 following the mergers of EasyPark Group with Flowbird Group, Parkopedia, and EasyPark Australia.
The platform spans consumer parking apps (EasyPark, RingGo, ParkMobile, Flowbird, plus white-label city-branded apps such as ParkNYC, ParkDetroit, HKeMeter and Monapass), hardware manufactured in France (Strada S5 Touch parking meters, ticket vending machines, validators, EV chargers), the CloudFare ticketing back office used by Tisséo Toulouse, Perth SmartRider and RATP/SNCF, the Parkopedia global database of 90 million parking spaces, a proprietary 3D mobile mapping rig and SLAM system powering 1,000+ indoor maps, an in-car single sign-on payment platform that is PCI-DSS and ISO 27001 certified, EV charging aggregation APIs, and AI agents built on Google Cloud Vertex AI and Gemini 2.0. Arrive also embeds its data, payments and navigation services into the infotainment systems of more than 20 automakers including BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, Volvo, Porsche, GM, Honda, JLR, Renault, Fiat, NIO and Vinfast.
Arrive's revenue model is a hybrid of per-transaction consumer parking fees, B2B/fleet monthly subscriptions (EasyPark Business in 20+ countries), hardware sales, multi-year enterprise contracts with cities and transit authorities (CloudFare SaaS, Open Payment, deployment and managed services), and OEM licensing of in-car data, payment and navigation APIs. The group is privately held by Verdane, Vitruvian Partners and Searchlight Capital Partners and operates through five business areas — Parking, Transport, B2B, Automotive & Data, and Payments — under CEO Cameron Clayton.
